In 2019, first-time Winter Show exhibitors Lowell Libson & Jonny Yarket Ltd. and Charles Ede, both of London, and Erik Thomsen Gallery of New York join the event.

The House Tipster Industry team was on the scene for a special early VIP press preview of The Winter Show, and we were able to take in hundreds of years of impressive art history, all in one beautiful space.

Our reporters also spoke with several exhibitors in the space to hear about the hottest galleries and trending pieces in the art world – and learned the story behind some never-before-exhibited pieces, including items just made before the show began.
